    I'm no expert by any means, but the saum's 300, 7mm and 6.5 all use the same case. The amount of powder and velocities are very similar to the 280AI. The limiting factor in the 6.5 is using lighter weight bullets around 140g. Plus I don't like the short fat cases which limits you to one less round when using a bdl bottom plate.

                Not hearing anyone saying they are going with 6.5 Creedmoor. No longer the sexy new round? I’m not one to jump on new cartridges, but it’s obvious the 6.5 isn’t new anymore and it’s not going anywhere, so it’s time for me to get one.

                Just not sure on barrel length. I have 16 and 18” 308s, but I’m thinking the 6.5CM needs at least 22”. I want to get the performance of the round, but still want to keep it short enough not to be cumbersome with a suppressor. Any recs from anyone?

                    If I didn't already have 6.5cm I would be ordering one, no question.

                      That's what mine is. I feel 22 is the perfect compromise between velocity and handling when running a suppressor.

                      I too seem to have noticed the creed may be reaching market saturation. That and the new 65 prc has people really excited as of today.

                        Why not be excited? Same as the 6.5cm but with lil extra hp. If you don’t reload you can buy match ammo for 37.99 probably not as sweet as the 29. For the cm tho

                          Any estimate of when the builds will be ready to ship / pickup?

                            I went 6.5 creed, Garrett said that 20 inch barrel would work great with a suppressor.

                                I'm going with a 6.5 Creed. I have a Fieldcraft in 6.5 cm that I will be selling.
